Thanks in advance,

LAX is pretty senior. I would guess 7 years to CA in LA. Compared to probably 4 for LGA. That assumes a fast post Covid recovery. Otherwise it could be 10+. Just a guess of course. With the new Alaska partnership I don’t see much west coast growth. You might be better off targeting UAL/DAL if you want west coast.
